Got to replacing my transom wood today, and I see that, like everything on my boat, it has been over-stressed. Two of the four bolts connecting the brace to the transom were over-tightened into the old transom, and the ends of the brace snapped off (2/4 bolts are actually doing something). Is there a website where I can order a new one, or will I have to get someone to fab one up?
 
I have the ones off my Alumacraft 1448MV. Transom angle is 108` or 18` layback, bottom hull leg is 8.5" long, transom is 13.5" long. They were riveted at the bottom, bolted at the top. I sanded the rivet heads off so they are still like new. Make a template from cardboard and see if they'll work.
